I spent a little time in Russelville ar. You are correct. Never seen that much hate. If you have an LSU hat or shirt and they keep seeing you. They will get their frick LSU shirt out of the closet and come around.

The hate for LSU by Arkansas Fans is because we ruined their shot at gack to back undefeated seasons and national championships in Football when we upset them in the 1966 Cotton Bowl. It's true and it runs very deep.

From Wiki about the game.

quote:

Arkansas, defending national champions, entered the game on a 22-game winning streak.[4] The 1965 Hogs defeated the #1 Texas Longhorns and #9 Texas Tech Red Raiders in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Despite this, the Razorbacks were ranked #1 for only one week, during which they defeated North Texas 55–20. #2 Michigan State beat #6 Purdue on the same weekend, giving the Spartans the #1 spot in the AP Poll.
